Re: [Orgmode] question about org-region-active-p

Re: [Orgmode] question about org-region-active-p

2008-12-15 Thread Samuel Wales
My limited understanding is this: Without the concept of activeness, you can't tell whether to operate on a single thing or a region. Old workarounds were to have -region commands, which polluted the key space; or C-u, which polluted the prefix space. t-m-m came along and solved it. Region vers
